On non monetary blogging.

1. It sucks to be on the negative end of a bad appraisal or one that never happens
2. It sucks to be on the listening side of the table – even if you are the smarter one
3. It sucks to have a blog that does not earn you money

However, there could be better things one could do like blog without looking at the monetary benefits. Try one for publishing your ideas. Speaking them out can become a rather difficult proposal. Idea once out can never be replayed. Also, you would come ‘down’ in some time

Looking around at things with economics in mind does not always pay. Common mistake seen around everywhere.

“Lets get a few posts in, get some eyeballs and start monetizing on them,”

The above statement involves –

1. Getting the eye balls. These balls have too many things to bother about. Its the Internet Bob.
2. Get a few posts in. Its quite an effort. Actually!
3. Monetizing them. Its recession time. YEAH!!!

Maybe its time we take to blogging in the old fashioned way again. Yes, Twitter, no personal blog in top 10, The long tail is getting longer, Blah, Blah Blah!

Stumbled on this rather interesting “comic” by Jessica Hagy.

Would blogging come back? Is 140 characters enough?
